The National Guard Armory at the corner of Robert Street and Emerson Avenue in West St. Paul was built in 1960. In addition to being home base for the 135th Infantry, 2nd Battalion’s A Company, the building has hosted a variety of events over the years.

Here’s another look at the building, year unknown (though I’d guess 1970s).
This is the West St. Paul Armory today:
